  CATALOGUE 
  OF 
  THE 
  DESCRIBED 
  SCOLYTIDAE 
  OF 
  

   AMERICA, 
  NORTH 
  OF 
  MEXICO 
  

  

  BY 
  J. 
  M. 
  SWAINE 
  

  

  The 
  following 
  catalogue 
  is 
  intended 
  to 
  include 
  all 
  names 
  that 
  have 
  

   been 
  proposed 
  for 
  species 
  of 
  Scolytidae 
  occurring 
  in 
  America, 
  north 
  

   of 
  Mexico, 
  with 
  citations 
  of 
  published 
  articles 
  referring 
  thereto. 
  

   The 
  references 
  were 
  collected 
  originally 
  for 
  our 
  use, 
  while 
  work- 
  

   ing 
  on 
  the 
  family 
  Scolytidae. 
  They 
  include 
  practically 
  all 
  the 
  liter- 
  

   ature 
  published 
  on 
  the 
  North 
  American 
  species 
  of 
  the 
  family. 
  

  

  Changes 
  should, 
  we 
  believe, 
  be 
  made 
  in 
  the 
  location 
  of 
  a 
  few 
  of 
  

   the 
  species 
  here 
  listed, 
  and 
  several 
  of 
  the 
  genera 
  may, 
  with 
  advan- 
  

   tage, 
  be 
  divided. 
  These 
  changes 
  require 
  considerable 
  discussion, 
  

   and 
  illustration, 
  and 
  would 
  perhaps 
  be 
  more 
  effectively 
  made 
  in 
  

   connection 
  with 
  the 
  description 
  of 
  the 
  large 
  number 
  of 
  undescribed 
  

   species 
  of 
  North 
  American 
  Scolytidae 
  known 
  to 
  collectors. 
  As 
  a 
  

   synonymic 
  catalogue 
  of 
  the 
  North 
  American 
  species 
  of 
  Scolytidae 
  

   has 
  been 
  promised 
  by 
  the 
  American 
  authority 
  on 
  this 
  family, 
  I 
  

   have 
  reported 
  the 
  priority 
  of 
  the 
  various 
  genera 
  and 
  species 
  just 
  

   as 
  found 
  in 
  the 
  literature. 
  The 
  object 
  of 
  this 
  paper 
  is 
  merely 
  to 
  

   present 
  the 
  refierences 
  to 
  that 
  literature. 
  The 
  habitat 
  and 
  food 
  

   plants 
  have 
  been 
  compiled 
  from 
  the 
  literature, 
  the 
  Cornell 
  Uni- 
  

   versity 
  collection 
  and 
  our 
  own 
  notes. 
  References 
  to 
  several 
  well 
  

   known 
  lists 
  are 
  not 
  included. 
  For 
  convenience 
  of 
  reference 
  the 
  

   genera 
  and 
  species 
  are 
  arranged 
  alphabetically. 
  

  

  As 
  regards

  conflicting

  of

   American 
  Entomological 
  Society,

  2, 
  undoubtedly 
  has 
  

   precedence 
  over

  Though 
  the 
  contrary
